Re: What's for dinner?
Both Ceylon and DCC's meals look good.
Last night at our place was crab cakes and pesto pasta salad and tonight is grilled burgers with corn on the cob.
Last night was a bit of a surprise as I got home from the gym and Mrs. Stan was straightening up the house. Turned out my daughter and her family were coming over for dinner. Good thing I get 5 crab cakes from a pound of crab. So dessert was getting to play with my granddaughter.

EMG, it's time for you to get back to your Texas roots and dazzle us with some of that great cooking we know you can do.
I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Re: What's for dinner?
I cannot help your childlike palates appreciate the finer things in life. If a Japanese cook made that dish the critics would gush over their respect of the ingredients, simplicity, naturalness, etc.
But when I do it you mongs are like "I WANT MEAT WITH BBQ SAUCE DURRRRRR"
Anyway, it's eggplant and okra blanched in saltwater. Vegetable noodles served cold with olive oil. Dipping sauce is cane vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, onion, cracked black pepper, bird's eye chili.
If you like the taste of vegetables, it's a great dish. Also if you like things like cold soba the Japanese serve, it's a great dish. If you like the taste of microwave salisbury steaks, it's not for you.

in fact , i bought soba noodles last week, bonito flakes, wakame, lotus root and bamboo shoot tips. YUM. i'm going to make a nice cold lotus root salad with birds eye chilis , green onions, rice vinegar and something else i have to look up.
emg, could you substitute the cane vinegar with rice vinegar? what's its flavour profile.

Re: What's for dinner?
Cane vinegar is sweeter than rice vinegar. You could swap them but it wouldn't be exactly the same. I think if I were forced to swap the two, I'd add a teaspoon of white sugar.
That's a Filipino dipping sauce, that's also used as a meat marinade frequently, and is one of my favorite things. It's really, really good.

Re: What's for dinner?
Gumbo has rice in it? I have no idea about creole/Cajun food. That one definitely said gumbo in the menu. It tasted nice but I wouldn’t go out of my way to eat it again. Generally speaking I found creole/Cajun food to be good but don’t think it’s something I’ll go for if there are other options. I’m also not a big fan of grits. I did like this dish.

Well, I might not be an expert but I lives 50 miles southwest of NO for 5 years and gumbo was always served with rice (not with rice cooked in the gumbo). Of course NO food and true Cajun food is not exactly the same. Where I lived grits was a northern thing. Cajun food is very rice centered.
Most of that crawfish with creamy grits looks like shrimp. I see a couple of crawfish but at least an many shrimp.

Menu said it's crawfish. Fuckers may have added shrimps in there. I can't tell the difference especially after few drinks.

Couldn't agree more. A Texan making girlie food with Hello Kitty pasta = SAD. I'm into a routine of making rice and a protein at 430AM every morning, and then sending off my friend with his lunch for work. I do manly stuff like laundry and watch soap operas after he leaves.
I have a few workers coming by early tomorrow to trim hedges, so making a hearty beef stew in a slow cooker later tonight. MAN food. It doesn't matter if the stew already has spuds in it, I'll get odd looks if I don't serve it with rice.

nope, there are some little things that look like grains of rice. Could be minced onion, could be maggots.

I just decided tonight will be paella. It is a dreary kind of day and that seems appropriate. Have to stop on the way home for seafood.
